Carbon nanotubes: Expanding the tire performance space Recent studies initiated by OCSiAl and carried out by independent laboratories have shown that TUBALL™ single wall carbon nanotubes are able to dramatically expand the tire performance space, removing the usual trade-offs faced by the tire industry. At ultra-low concentrations of just 0.1–0.2 wt.%, these nanotubes significantly improve the abrasion resistance, energy efficiency, wet grip, and electrical conductivity of most rubber compounds. OCSiAl is proposing unique and highly innovative solutions for the rubber market. The company’s TUBALL™ MATRIX 603 product is a commercially available masterbatch for superior mechanical properties and conductivity of tires and rubber goods. Following the highly encouraging initial results, and in view of the breakthrough benefits promised by this additive versus conventional ones, a number of major rubber and tire manufacturers are now running experimental or industrial trials to develop a new generation of tires. The tire industry will be strongly impacted by this new technology. The introduction of silica years ago provided a significant performance increase over prior technologies. TUBALL™ now represents the next leap forward in performance, and without the trade- offs required with silica today. Ongoing trials with our customers are seeing the most advanced tire performance of any technology to date. At booth C822 at the Tire Technology Expo 2017, to be held in Hannover from 14 to 16 February, OCSiAl will showcase its core product – TUBALL™ nanotubes – and the advanced nanotube-based modifiers that are now available for materials in the tire industry. Notes to editors For media enquiries, please contact: Diana Issa OCSiAl PR manager T: +7 (905)5029994 E: [email protected] About OCSiAl OCSiAl is the first company to develop a breakthrough technology for the production of TUBALL™ - 80% single wall carbon nanotubes - enabling economically viable, large- scale commercial use. In 2014 OCSiAl entered the nanomaterials market with its universal additive TUBALL™, which contains 80% of single wall carbon nanotubes. OCSiAl develops technologies based on nanotubes for a range of applications including lithium-ion batteries, elastomers, plastics, transparent conductive films, composite materials and others. In 2016 OCSiAl launched a unique technology – the super- concentrate TUBALL™ MATRIX. OCSiAl, headquartered in Luxembourg, has regional offices in the USA, Russia, Korea, China, Hong Kong and India.

More than 70% of all basic materials can be improved by introducing a universal additive – graphene nanotubes. These tiny tubes provide us with a rare opportunity to create nanoaugmented materials that have extraordinary properties. Graphene nanotubes can be described as a one-atom-thick graphene sheet rolled in a tube more than 5 µm length. This material is also commonly called single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). UNIQUE PROPERTIES OF GNTs With these unique properties of graphene nanotubes, many characteristics of materials are improved. The pre-eminence of these nanotubes is related to their exceptional properties, such as superior conductivity, high temperature resistance, ultra-low weight, record strength and high flexibility. Excellent Stronger Thermal Length conductor than steel stability to diameter ratio 5 times up to up to about lighter than 100 times 1,600°C 3,000 times copper in a vacuum 3 GNTs — THE FIRST UNIVERSAL ADDITIVE FOR MATERIALS Electrochemical Sensors power sources Concrete Ceramics Glass Copper semiconductors Composites Rubber materials Adhesives Plastics Aluminium Paints 4 Owing to their extraordinary thermal conductivity and their mechanical and electrical properties, GNTs find applications as additives in an extremely wide range of structural materials.

Technical Data Sheet MASTERBATCH for SILICONE
Technical Data Sheet V03_20181112 MASTERBATCH FOR SILICONE APPLICATIONS GENERAL INFORMATION TUBALL™ MATRIX is a line of concentrates based on TUBALL™ single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) produced by OCSiAl. TUBALL™ MATRIX concentrates are available in several matrixes, are easy to handle, and can be processed using standard equipment. Depending on the TUBALL™ MATRIX percentage in the final compound and the processing conditions and other system components, the volume resistivity can be adjusted within the range <10–1011 Ω·cm. TUBALL™ is a unique SWCNT additive that provides electrical conductivity at low dosages not achievable with any standard conductive additive. These low dosages enable the electrical resistivity of the material to be reduced with minimal impact on the host matrix, including retaining and even improving mechanical properties, minimally increasing density, and limiting the influence on the rheological properties and colour. TUBALL™ MATRIX 605 is a concentrate specifically designed to provide superior electrical conductivity to silicone compounds (HCR — high consistency rubber) while retaining mechanical properties and minimally impacting the host matrix. BENEFITS • TUBALL™ MATRIX, enable ultra-low dosage starting from just 0.5 wt.% for anti-static, static dissipative and conductive applications • Allow production of conductive parts that retain bright colours • Ensure permanent and uniform electrical conductivity without “hot spots” • Maintain rheology of the uncured compound • Standard processing and mixing equipment
